Predicting chronic subdural hematoma risk in elderly patients with mild traumatic brain injury
Pathological CT findings following mild TBI were the strongest predictor for CSDH. Male sex, older age, and renal failure were also strong predictors. The prediction model allows efficient bedside risk stratification and opens the possibility for targeted surveillance protocols in high-risk populations.
